Does anyone else find it weird that it’s not completely uncommon for pre-pubescent girls to fantasize about their wedding? Why are they thinking about marrying someone when they’re not even old enough to be attracted to people yet? Is there a biological reason for this?
…i think the social conditioning to marry prince charming was profound; kind of like religion, we all want to believe in someone to sweep off our feet and make our dreams come true…
…i don’t have my finger on the pulse of generation alpha but for awhile i hoped generation Z might leave that baggage behind them…
The “biological reason” is “societal preconditioning”. Its Disney movies, toys marketed towards small girls, television, social media…
Despite many advancements in equality, marrying a rich man is still seen (and marketed) as a live goal for women.
Also, wedding and princess are pretty mutch the same thing for a girl. Pretty dress, center of attention, presents, etc. Its not about “getting married”.

nope, entirely cultural
if toy guns and gi joes were marketed toward little girls we would have a bunch of them fantasizing about being soldiers
